description Transcanalicular endoscope combined laser assisted dacryocystorhinostomy (Transcanalicular ECLAD) is a new minimally invasive dacryocystorhinostomy procedure which is performed by diode laser through lacrimal canaliculi with the help of a cannula and fibre optic cable. The interior of nasal cavity is visualized with the help of nasal endoscope. The view of interior of nasal cavity is projected on a monitor with the help of video camera which is incorporated in nasal endoscope. The Transcanalicular ECLAD have various advantages over conventional dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) and easy to learn without compromising the result.
